24th January 1980

Thursday 24
My Birthday - 18th
Got up at 8.30
Jumped on Sam to get him up (steady on now !! lol)
Opened me pressies
Got a really ace sewing machine off Mar & her fella
A Sekonda watch off Sam
An alarm clock off his sister
A sewing box off his mum & dad (which I still use)
£7.00 off relatives & lots of cards
Went to college at 10.30
Hit the Houghton Arms at 11.30
Art Centre at 12(it was Claire's 18th too)
& then drank & drank
Next few hours a bit of a blur
Got back to Fi's (somehow!)

Went for a meal at the 'Little Gourmet ' = ace
Got a silver initial on a chain from brothers girlfriend
Got loads of lovely pressies from people at college
It was a great day
Thank you everyone :-)


God only knows how I made it from drunk as a Lord to eating a meal fairly 'together' with the family hee hee

So young ........ so innocent.

In the middle photograph it looks like discarded underwear over the back of the armchair - any comments?

After you've recovered from your hangover this morning, pop over to get your present and HAVE A LOVELY DAY!!

Happy Birflday from an occasional visitor. (I only visit on special occasions).

Oh, and please disregard anything wotshisname says about behaving. I do not believe in encouraging Goddesses to behave. The profiteroles are delicious.

Happy Birthday Fraccy Sis! Like a good sis... I did NOT notice the knickers. ;-) There's a wish for you over at the fraccy blog. I do hope find it to your liking!

In one of the first pics, I couldn't help but notice you quite resemble a gal that was one of my own best friends at the time! Same face shape, hair parted on the side... rather a remarkable coincidence!
